Systems and methods for automatically adjusting the exposure settings (e.g., exposure time, analog gain, etc.) of imaging device(s) and/or camera(s) utilized in machine vision systems. According to embodiments of the present disclosure, one or more images or frames of a stream of images captured by an imaging device of a machine vision system can be processed and analyzed to determine exposure settings that may be applied to capture subsequent images by the imaging device. For example, a frame of the stream of images can be partitioned into a plurality of zones, and the pixels of each zone can be non-uniformly sorted into a histogram to represent the distribution of pixels in each zone. The histogram values for each zone can be aggregated to determine an aggregated exposure value associated with the frame, which can be compared against a target exposure value in view of a response function associated with the imaging device to determine the exposure value for capturing subsequent frames in the stream of images.
